^auijt0 now brought our work to completion, we send our book out into the world to make
friends for itself, and to make a place for itself among the long list of College Annuals.
Naturally we are a little timid, like a young father with his first bab}', but we must acknowledge,
too, that we are a little vain, and we awkwardl}^ hold out our youngster, hardly knowing what to do
with it, yet bashfullj' defying the world to show a finer child or a more lusty specimen of the young
human animal than our first-born, considering its tender age.
From the time of its birth, some three months ago, we have been coddling it and watching over
it, like eleven jealous hens over one chick, and our kind friends have been making it the most beau-
tiful clothes for its first appearance in public. But still, even after all was ready for the important
event, we hesitated. The weather might be too cold for the dear little thing, or it might be afraid of
the strange, new world, and then others might not see in it all 'the graces, and virtues, and perfections,
which its fond parents delighted to find and magnify. So we put off bringing it out, until every one
said that it was really too ridiculous, and that such a fine child ought to be given a chance to show his
accomplishments to the expectant world.
So now, with fear and trembling, we have put on all the pretty things our intimate friends have
sent us, and we appear with our darling before the critical eyes of the public. With all the pride of
new-young-papahood in our eyes, and an uncomfortable feeling of fear in our hearts, we wait for
congratulations— or
We must take this opportunity to thank our friends for the many beautiful baby clothes and
finery we have received. We are indebted to all for their presents, but especially to Miss lyily Logan
and Miss Edith Duggan, of Newcomb, and to Messrs. Huger Elliott, J. Castellanos, and F. Churchill,
of Tulane, for their interest in little Jambalaya, and the many kindnesses which they have .showered
upon him.THE EDITORS.

History of the Class of '96.
Carlyle saj^s, somewhere, that " history is a mighty drama enacted upon the theater of time, with
suns for lamps and eternity for a background." The history of this class is inscribed upon the
minutes of the Glendy Burke, the New Literary Society, and the Students' Congress. Its energy is
testified to by the birth of the Chess, Glee, Banjo, and Mandolin Clubs. The Sketch Club has drawn
energj- from its genius. In every department where free ability of brain or muscle counts for any-
thing, the achievements of this Class have been inscribed upon the records in letters of such size that
"he who runs may read; " nay, more, its fame has passed be3'ond the bounds of the University out
into the world and its worse half.
While it can not be said that this Class is noted as a set of the most exemplary students, still no
one can accuse it of lack of abilit}^ or versatality. It is no boast to say that '96 has created university
club life here at Tulane. This is a fact which no one can or does deny.
I remember when this Class was in semi-virgin Freshmanhood. Class spirit was almost unknown
at Tulane. There was plenty of fraternity clannishness, and every election was turned into a Kilkenny
cat fight by the striving Greeks ; but this unpleasant practice was laid away in the bosom of Abraham
when '96 declared against it and made its influence felt as a Class.
Interest in football was started by our forming a team in the Freshman year ; and who does not
remember the glory of those palmy Sophomore days? How we taught Professor Guthrie Roman
History amid a wild babel of small talk, and while our pupil, as the chairs performed amoeboid
movements all over the room, would implore, with tears in his pathetic eyes, "Gentlemen, please
preserve j^our seats?'
' How we proved to the learned Anderson that either he knew no physics or that
we would not ; and, above all, who can forget those sr^or'avo. gambolings in the old Medical Building,
where bones were reported to be found occasionally? How industrious students would slip quietly
away to the halls of the deserted building to cram for examinations, or to pass an hour of solitary
meditation, and how all this ceased when the Faculty also began to discover bones?
Then came the Junior days. We were in our new buildings—the students had moved into new
quarters, E. Del Corral's—before the tyranny of the W. C. T. U. Those were glorious days—care-free
days. Manj' students might be seen carrying small brass coin-shaped checks in their pockets.
Of course the Class took all the athletic honors this year, as it always has done and will do, but
we pass over its achievements, as these are so well known as to need no further mention. In fact, '96
needs no written historj'. Everyone has the history of this class written in his memory.
17
We come then to the Senior year. Besides those things which are now too famous to repeat, the
members of the Class have been verj' industrious, and have accomplished many worthj^ deeds, of which
the world at large may have no knowledge as yet. For instance, Guthrie has bought a new suit, fresh
from lyondon, and was given a triumphal procession through the halls under umbrellas; furthermore,
he has discovered an unfailing remedy for insomnia, which he tries on all occasions, especially lectures.
Cully Scudder has oifered to wheel the Professors' baby carriages and act as sub-nurse. Dixon is
pursuing his antiquarian researches in bones. Johnson is assisting him with his experience. Allison
has been running a successful truck farm on his upper lip. DeBugs has spent a fortune on hair tonic,
but we can not guess for what object. Vatter is still on exhibition as the only living sea-cow. Carter
is a professional smiler. L,amberton has been having his hair cut b3' degrees, and is training for a
professional beauty. Dufour is doing a little of everything, and not much of anj-thing. Payne is
chronic. "Evangelist Bill" Whittington has composed a new prayer, and the others have been
degenerating, to the entire satisfaction of the Class.
Soon Tulane shall lose her most glorious Class; but in the far future, when the last member of
'96 has at last succeeded in killing himself, there will be a grand reunion on the banks of the Styx,
and after electing a successor to Satan and the chief angels of hell, a taster of brimstone, a chief
engineer, a manager of the women's department, and other necessary oiScials, the class will take
possession of Tartarus and run it, as they have run everything on earth, on approved end-of-the-
century principles.

History of the Class of '9T.
The most superficial student of the world's history will tell you that history not only "repeats
itself," as some wiseacre took upon himself to say, but it oftentimes happens that two distinctive
growths may have developed in the same way, and that the history of the two developments may be
identical. It is not necessary for us to take up here the different examples so patent to every person
that has ever dabbled in the stream of historic knowledge. Suffice it to say that the best authorities
on the subject are agreed that the history of Ninety-seven is not one " peculiar to itself" (the author-
ities in question are not capable of such shallowness of judgment, showing, as it does, lack of schol-
arship). It has, in truth, a parallel.
As our mother tongue, profiting by the other speeches with which it came into contact, assimi-
lated the good features of construction and idiom, and took unto itself the best the vocabularies of
its associates afforded until it now stands forth in its perfection, so Ninety-seven, emerging from the
darkness of the preparatory schools, has ever continued in the path of progress, not hesitating to
profit by the examples of those with whom it came into contact, taking up strength on the waj', but
never wavering in its onward progress, the Class now stands forth in its completeness, and it is no
boasting on our part that makes us say it is completely complete.
When the sun rose over the dusty brick buildings and "jaggy" looking telegraph poles of Ganal
Street on the morning of October ist, Eighteen Hundred and Ninety-three, it might have found
quietly slumbering in various parts of the great metropolis a number of—shall I call them men?
—
whose noble brows he was only too happy to kiss, and when he had gone some three hours on his
journey he had seen the beginnings of a great organization. His rays glistened on the green bodies
of the Freshmen; but, alas ! the rays of the Lord of Day were not long to light up old Erin's hue, for
this was soon hidden by the white and yellow and what not colors of the chrysanthemums captured
from an overbearing and self-confident enemy.
"The Sun saw the battle (so says an old chronicle), and in justice to the victors made the con-
quered wear ever afterward the badge of their dishonor, the colors of the flowers they had lost— the
Orange and White. The God of Thunder then frowned upon the ignominious defeat of the self-
appointed champions of the yellow and white chrysanthemums. Then did the soothsayers affirm it
to be the will of the gods that the symbols of Ninety-seven should be Light Blue and Dark Blue
—
the former as a witness that the Sun was ever mindful of the action of the class upon that day ; the
latter in commemoration of the fact that the Thunder God also witnessed the battle. Nor did the
Sun and the God of Thunder fail in encouraging those to whom their symbols pertained."
Thus early having acquired the favor of the gods, the class has gone forward. One of the
glorious ones of the memorable conflict was honored with the captaincy of the college football team,
for, as the sages say, "brave men are recognized by the company they keep."
Before the year ended the chrysanthemum defenders, the ignominious band wearing the Orange
and White, tried in a more strategic way to lay low the wearers of the Light Blue and Dark Blue.

They might as well have tried to stop the onward flow of the mighty Mississippi ; nor could the
results have been more disastrous. A sad, disheartened crowd left the diamond. They have never
tried to come again against the god-favored body, but in the manner of worn-out wet hens, still flap
their wings and crow—and over what?
The lesson of expeiience is a valuable one. The followers of the Light and Dark Blue profited
by the example of those that precede. They were peaceful, nor tried to run over green Freshmen.
These, however, wished to try to overcome the heroes of the College, and chose the bloody gridiron
for the place. Then was seen such carnage as never before did witness the campus. Encouraged by
the Tightness of their cause, the men of Ninety-sev^en rent the air with their melodious melody, telling
of the deeds of valor of their chieftains. The enemy left the field crushed, and only too glad that
the generosity of Ninety-seven had exempted them from a whitewash.
[It has been found that the history of the class has grown too long for its original purpose— a
guide to other bodies of men, teaching them by example to be meek, not self-seeking, fair and
upright.
—
Eds. of Jambalaya.]
The above note in the MS. makes us omit the menton of the other deeds of the Class—no less
illustrious than those already mentioned: The disciplining of the present Freshmen, the furnishing
of the Football Team with nine out of the eleven players, the decorating of the platforms of the Rail-
road Company in colors symbolic of the adjacent property-holders, the carrying through of the Spring
Games for the last three years, the holding in check of the Sophomores, the writing of theses for the
Seniors, the passing of examinations (?), the lending of ponies to professors as the examinations
approach, the dedicating of a $100,000 Gymnasium, and last, but not least, the acting in such an
honorable and unostentatious manner, with no blowing of horns and no running of Glee Clubs to the
tune of minus three hundred dollars.
We pass over without mentioning these things, but feel confident that everybodj' is grateful for
what we have done, even though they are too envious to say so. So in our own meek, mild and
unassuming way we make our bow, knowing our superiority, but without vaunting it on all occasions.
How we condole with the University on its prospect of losing such a body in June, 1897 ! Oh,
Tulane, beware of not giving honor where honor is due. You owe all of your glory, all you have,
to Ninetj'-seven.

History of the Class of '98.
One much more valiant and industrious than the writer might well quail before the herculean
task of finding terms worthy of being emplo3'ed to set forth the glories of '98.
In fact, reader, after twice reading through the Centurj' Dictionarj-, the writer has come to the
conclusion that, although the "glory that was Greece and the grandeur that was Rome " have found
their embodiment in the heroes of '98, the development of the English language has not furnished a
vocabularj' adequate to describe them. Therefore, since Livy had the misfortune to live before these
latter-day grandeurs, the writer has to trust that the deeds of '98 will, by their own inherent immensity,
rise as a ver}- Gulliver among Lilliputians in comparison with the so-called glories of the other
classes.
To '98 was left the glory of pla3'ing two football games on one day, when, on that memorable
second Saturday after Thanksgiving, '94, eleven of her sons, worn out by a game played in the
morning against the City High School Team, in which they three times carried the pigskin over their
opponents' goal line, and never once allowed it to cross their own, they faced the '97 team and held
it down 14 to 2. Lest the reader think that '98 was presumptuous to have attempted this feat, be it
understood that, after the game with the High School had been already arranged, members of all the
other Classes came to Captain Charles Burthe, telling him that it was especially important to play '97
on that date, as they wished to establish a precedent for an annual game on that day between the
Freshman and Sophomore classes.
When the same date of '95 came around, however, and the '98 team, strengthened by practice
and by the acquisition of several new men, was whetting its teeth for Freshmen's gore, the other
classes stood supinely by and allowed '99 to refuse to play. Nevertheless, dear reader, blame them
not, for, after reading a list of the feats of '98, you will see, as they did, that they must band together
for self-preservation. During the season of '94, four '98 men were in the Football Squad.
In the spring games of '95, the '98 team ran a close second in the Class Race, and C. Eustis, '98,
won the 100-yard dash, and ran a close second in the 220. Eustis, '98, was also one of the Track
31
Team that went to Vanderbilt and captured the 220 there. In the S. A. C. and S. A. A. A. U. meets
he captured five first places. When the Class of '98 returned as Sophomores, in the fall of '95, they
retained their preeminent position. During the season, seven '98 men were on the football squad,
among whom were the only three players that were chosen to play at quarter. On the Tulane second
eleven that defeated the S. A. C. Juniors were five '98 men.
It is needless to say that '98 is well represented in all the College organizations ; that she has two
men, Burthe and Terriberrj^ on the Jambalaya Board of Editors, and that the assistant football
manager is a '98 man.
Let rae now close with the assurance that it is well '98 is not now in its Senior year, as its deeds,
literary, athletic and otherwise, would fill the present Jambalaya.Historian of '98.

A History of the Class of '99.
"Historj'," it is said, "repeats itself," a reflection that gives me a Waterbury kind of feeling
that as a "Class Historian," I am expected to play the part of a repeater. The next thing, then, is
to wind myself up. But in what a tangle the spring seems! In what a heap of twists and turns
and convolutions ! But here goes—"crick, crick, crick"—and may there be no snap.
" If there's a hole in air your coats,
I reed ye mend it.
For there's a chiel amang ye takiu' notes.
And faith! he'll print it."
First—for cold facts. The Class of '99 is mainly composed of students from the old Tulane
High School. lu October, 1895, Mr. J. S. Boatner was elected by a unanimous vote to the Presi-
dency of the Freshman Class. Mr. Charles A. Dancy was chosen Vice President, and Mr. Philip S.
Gidiere, Secretary. Under the able administration of these officers the Class has prospered. On
January 2, 1896, the Winter Term began, and on the eighth day of the same month- Mr. Boatner was
reelected Class President ; Mr. Santos S. Rubira, Vice President, and Mr. Sidney F. Lewis, Secre-
tary. We are now enjoying the benefits of a most efficient administration under these officers.
We are Freshmen—some of us very fresh men. At present we are very much like so many cubs,
with all our troubles before us. Our triumphs are all yet to be achieved. There is no such word as
failure for us. Our aim is to win laurels by our brains, not to cultivate pains by our muscles as has
been resorted to by our elders. They have shown of what metal they are made—the Past is an old tale-
bearer. We belong to the future, and consequently can claim anything and everything. Our friend,
" Mr. Future," can't give any one away in advance. Who knows what latent genius is centered in
this Freshman Class? Nobody—and maybe nobody ever will, but you can't make us believe it just
now—not by a jugfuU; for it is our firm conviction that here in our ranks will be found the Glad-
stones, the Bancrofts, the Walter Scotts, the Franklins, the Tennysons, and, perhaps, the Miltons of
the future, who will dazzle their age and bring renown to their Alma Mater. We only pray that
among us there will never arise a " ' Tit Caporal " to disturb the equilibrium of nations and to frown
tipon the Monroe Doctrine.,
We believe the Faculty of Tulane University has reason to be prouder of the Freshman Class of
this year than of any that has preceded it—not from an intellectual standpoint, of course;but have
39
we not contributed to the foundation of all associations existing at Tulane? And, dearer than all to
the heart of college youth, would the far-famed Tulane Football Team have achieved its glorious
victories, if the immortal Foote and the invincible Rubira had not been its main support ?
Among the conspicuous incidents of the year may be mentioned the Dancy-Sophomore cane
rush. Mr. Dancy, in defiance of the Sophs, and their threats, appeared one day at the college armed
with a very formidable cane. In the evening, as he was leaving the building, he was met by a crowd
of '98's. Like bulls enraged at the sight of a red flag, the Sophs., on perceiving Mr. Dancy's cane,
got on the warpath. With a terriffic rush they closed about him, and in less time than it takes to tell
it, the air was filled with fricasseed shouts, groans, blood, and splinters. Mr. Dancy's head, unfor-
tunately, ran up against something slightly harder than agreeable. Fearing that he had severely hurt
his enemies (no anxiety for himself, of course, actuated him), he beat a quick retreat on his hands
and knees, to give his opponents time to recuperate. Mr. Dancy, although at present enjoying good
health, at odd times still spits up pieces of walking stick.
It is not incident that is wanting in college life, but the field is so bountiful that it is difficult to
select ; and we are compelled to relegate this subject to the past in which we take little stock, but are
pledged to exert all our energy in planning achievements for the future. "What is it to us whether or
not Ccesar wiped up the streets of Rome with Pompey ? What is it to us whether or not Diogenes
and other orators of Greece wore light tanned razor-toed shoes, or went barefooted? Who cares
whether or not Alexander the Great was clean shaven or wore dyed side-creepers?
We of Tulane may be likened to so many tribes of Aborigines. The most ancient of these,
known by the name of Seniors, having reached the pinnacle of cultivation and civilization, are the
last of a great race, and within the last four years they have so degenerated in physical, as well as
moral courage, that their names are hardly known on the Campus. Soon they will be driven beyond
its pales by the steady march of another tribe, known as Juniors, who, in turn, must retreat before a
tribe known as Sophomores. All in turn must fall before the mighty advance of the Freshmen. Alas !
these departing spirits merit our heartfelt sympathy. Each in its order will soon be gone. Their
moans, mingled with cries for revenge, shall be heard upon the midnight air, making night hideous
with howls. Perhaps, one or two sore-eyed limping warriors, with faces furrowed over with marks of
unceasing worry, will be, in the end, the only remnants of the once proud tribes.

" The Annual " in college life is alwa5's the culminating point of the students' best efforts in a
literarj' way, and Tulane, in her onward progress, has at last reached this happy climax through its
medium, the JambalaYx\. But the "accomplished fact" is never found as such—there must always
be a beginning. The glamor that surrounds the first issue of the Jambalaya, coupled with the
changes that have taken place in the student body during the last five years, may tend to make 3'ou
overlook, or, worse, forget the siart in your literary activities.
It is my pleasant privilege to enlighten your ignorance on this subject. If you are a thinking
person, you have doubtless noticed what a lucky part the 14th has played in the lottery of time. It
was on a 14th that the Battle of Hastings was fought and the Bastile was stormed. The 14th of
September and March mark the dates when the people of our own city rose and defended their rights.
Last, but not least, on the 14th day of November, 1890, the first edition of the Tulane Rat was
published.
Some people of a very critical turn might regard this last-named event in the light of a popish
transit from the sublime to the ridiculous. To the outside world in general this may be true ; but to
the .students of Tulane University this event is of equal importance with the rest. It marks the
beginning of journalism in our 'Varsitj'; the awakening of energies, both in prose and rhyme, which
had long lain dormant. It was the forerunner of that greater, but by no means brighter light, the
Tulaiie Collegian.
I used the term '
' published"
' above through courtesy. The first issue of the Tulane Rat more
properly "appeared." It was in the form of a tj'pewritten sheet, tacked to the bulletin-board, and
75
was at fifst strict!}- sub rosa. But genius, like murder, will out. The authors, in spite of themselves,
were discovered. Mr. Edward Dinkespiel was found to be editor-in-chief, and had as collaborateurs
Messrs. Grantland L. Tebault, of the Phi Delta Theta Fraternity; Samuel H. Backus, of the Kappa
Alpha Fraternitj' ; and Abe Goldburg, non-fraternity. Soon three more were taken unto the fold
—
Messrs. Harold W. Newman, of the Phi Kappa Sigma Fraternity; Willie Forsythe, of the Sigma Chi
Fraternity; and P. Arthur Thibaut, of the Kappa Sigma Fraternity; and then " we were seven."
The paper "appeared" every Monday morning, and was in a wa}' "illustrated" (pencil sketches)
literary chit-chat. In addition, it was "a critique" on the actions of the students, and a running
commentary on all the incidents of their school life, and the "political organ" of the times. All the
sketching and typewriting was done by our editor-in-chief
In its early history the Rat was not duly appreciated. The students paid it little or no attention,
and finallj' its fifth number was torn down b}' the President. This seems to have caused a reaction in
our favor. The boys rightly judged that if it was worthy of even unworth}' notice from the President,
it was at least worthy of their patronage. From this time on our renown increased from daj' to day,
and finall}' the Tidanc Rat became a power in the school.
Our artist, "who held the mirror up to the students' natures," was complimented on all sides,
and his productions greatly admired. Neither was there a'
' plentiful lack of wit.'
' Professor Alcee
Fortier went so far as to say our paper was plein d' esprit.
In '91 the staff underwent a slight change. Our editor-in-chief, Mr. Dinkespiel, left us, and Mr.
Grantland Tebault also discontinued his connection. Mr. H. W. Newman became our chief, and the
other vacancy was filled by Mr. Fred Vergez.
After the appearance of the Collegian the Rat gradually evanesced. Our staff merged with theirs,
and it became impossible to run both papers. Mr. Abe Goldberg was second editor-in-chief of the
Tiilane Collegian ; Mr. Harold W. Newman became its business manager during the first year of its
existence, and was then succeeded in office by Mr. Grantland L. Tebault, the business manager of the
Tulane Collegian during the second year of its existence. All the other gentlemen were at one time
on the staff of the Tulane Collegian as class editors.
And what of the editors of this now extinct little paper ? They are of the old regime and beyond the
pale of your acquaintance, but I think it well to recall them by a brief mention. We have lost one of
the cheeriest of our lot—a man who to know was to like him. Six of the remaining seven are now
76
rising young lawyers of this city—Messrs. Dinkespiel, Newman, Goldberg, Grantland L. Tebault, and
P. Arthur Thibaut. Mr. Forsythe is studying law at the Universit}' of Virginia. Mr. Backus is
studying medicine.
So, j'ou of the Jambalaya, with neat binding and printed page, don 't forget the old Tulane Rat.
Even though in the rough, and a trifle flippant perhaps, it alone made you possible. Remember
Wit and humor's laws la}' hid in night
;
Jove said, "I/Ct the .^a^ be !" and all was light.
Vive Jambalaya.

Natural History.
During the session '93-94 the Tulane Natural Historj' Society came into existence. The first
meeting was held February 3, 1894, and officers were elected, Mr. Carson Dixon being chosen Presi-
dent and Mr. E. D. Martinez Vice President. Though called a society', this body was in realitj' but
a class, composed of those students who were desirous of learning something of that great branch of
science, Zoologj'. Under the able instruction of Professor Beyer, Curator of the Museum, considerable
progress was made in learning of the structure and classification of animals, and in straightening out
confused ideas about the different forms of animal life.
The first sign of the decline of the Societ}' was the doing away with the formality of officers, so
that simply a class remained. Of course this class was entirely optional, so that one b)' one the less
enthusiastic members dropped off, and only the more interested ones stayed together, and finallj^ the
class resolved itself into occasional informal talks on the subject in question with Professor Beyer.
During part of the session of '94-95 there was a class in Zoolog}', and during the present session also
there have been lectures on that subject, as well as on Botau}'.
There are and have been several ornithologists at Tulane the last few years: Mr. Allen B.
Blakemore, '94, who is still with us; Mr. William La Prade, formerly of '96 ; Mr. Hewitt L. Ballowe,
'97; Mr. Andrew Allison, '98; Mr. James P. Parker, '98; Mr. Harold W. Pring, formerly of 'gS;
Mr. Ulricli B. Phillips, Tulane High School, '93, and Mr. Henry H. Kopman, '97. Several of these
gentlemen have rendered assistance to the Curator of the Museum in the collecting of specimens,
and through their combined efforts for the past few sessions have gotten together some very good
data on bird migration in this locality. Besides, there was taken in the vicinitj- of this city last year
a bird which the great Audubon himself never saw—namely, the gray-cheeked thru.sh ; in proof of
which fact vide museum collection, where the thrush rests in state, and then turn to Audubon's works
and try to find the description of the .same species.
Messrs.' Pring and Kopman are interested in Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths), and have
secured several butterflies here in the habitat of which this section of the country is not included, by
one work at least, on the North American species.
106
The condition of the Museum is continually improviiag, and new specimens are being added, so
that a student in anj^ branch can find material to<direct his work.
We believe that there is sufiicient material in Tulane to form a Natural Historj- Societ}', and that
there are students whose interest in Natural Science needs onl3' to be awakened. At all events, we
sincerely hope that the proceedings of such an organization may be recorded in the next number of
Jambalaya.h. h. kopman.

As the session draws to a weary close, and the mad rush and turmoil of examination-time has
subsided, and we are left to wait with hopeful patience for the possible appearance of our examination
certificates, we pause a moment and glance backward along the pathway we have trod, and, with the
aid of our overstrained memories, recall to mind those many deeds of valor enacted by the brilliant
members of the Class, and the many great discoveries with which, strange to say, we have failed to
astonish the medical world.
Before recounting, however, these valiant deeds and astounding discoveries, let us cast a casual
glance over that great army of medical students who compose our brilliant Class.
The Class, as a whole, has three divisions, each with its special peculiarities of odd characters,
bright (?) men and varied degrees of intelligence and morals.
In obedience to the order of superior knowledge, we turn our eyes upward, and our admiring
gaze rests upon that awe-inspiring group—"the gentlemen of the First Course." These peculiar
individuals impress us at once with their variegated personalities and their verdant freshness, which
in themselves are distinguishing features, to saj' nothing of the volubilitj' of their language and its
richness in the love of medicine. We are at first almost overcome with wonder at these outbreaks of
latent knowledge from students so young in the study of .such a deep and noble science, but our
surprise is at once dispelled when we ob.serve that they carry upon their shoulders cranial appendices
of great size and capacity. It may be noted, however, that these hypertrophic organs are not .strictly
confined to the members of this unique Class ; a few being also found among the successful candi-
dates for graduation, hydrocephalic patients at the Hospital, etc. Another quite as remarkable fact
concerning this illustrious group, is their morbid tendency to assemble together at frequent intervals
to hold class-meetings, and indulge in bold discu,ssions relative to the management and welfare of
the College, and especially the demeanor of the Faculty. The latter, however, may be regarded as a
harmless habit, and the Faculty does not object (?) to dictation.
With reluctance we turn away from these interesting objects and gaze now upon that hard-worked
Class of Second Course men. Among them maj' be seen the nuclei of many great surgeons, famed
physicians, eminent specialists, etc. It is these men who are seen diligently attending the quizzes,
140
studying hard at lunch time, and grinding over their books in the late hours of the night ever in a
relentless quest for knowledge. Beneath a cold, uncouth exterior there dwells fond hopes of blood
and carnage, fame and honor, skill and wisdom, usefulness and sagacity. Though spoken of as the
" L,aboring Class," 'twas not always thus, for, at one time they, too, held eminent positions and
were shining lights in that hightower First Year Class. Alas ! They are now but sad relics of former
grandeur, with merelj- a glimmer of hope fur a brighter future, wherein they may dwell in royal
idleness with their many laurels wreathed around their centers of imagination, and when the proud
moment comes when they can lay aside their " Resumes," their " Potters," and their "Simons," and
cremate "Chaille's Notes" upon the altar of their past grievances, then will they forget their
sorrowful lot, and may even forget themselves so far as to tell a dubious First Courseman of the
"snap" they've had.
Speak no more of these ordiuarj- beings, but behold that majestic array of human beings
known as the Graduating Class. From the grass}' plains of Texas, from the marshes of Louisiana,
from the swamps of Mississippi, from the cotton iields and '
' tater patches " of Alabama, are gathered
together these specimens of the gemis homo. The}- come, thej' see, they conquer. How proudly do
they wear their sprouting whiskers and knowing looks, and with what lordlj- patronage do they
listen, as they recline in luxurious ease upon the top seats of the amphitheater, to the antique jokes
sprung by the Professors upon the helpless Lower Class men.
They usually attend the quizzes on the European plan—a privilege much envied by the Second
Course students, who, if they fail to respond to the quiz room queries, miss those valuable " t. b's," and
get instead those deprecating "O's." As the fateful time draws near when theses must be presented,
graduation fees paid in, and the horrors of the Green Room arise before their mental vision, there is
a visible change in the daily demeanor of these would-be "M.D's.," and at the mere mention of
that magic name, "The State Board," they start and tremble as if aroused from some horrible dream.
Depicted upon their mossy countenances may be seen at times the darkness of despair, and their
desperation has been known at times to lead to reckless deeds, such as the reading of a text-book or
the taking of notes, and other thoughtless acts.
Soon, perhaps, after convalescing from the effects of the State Board and College "exams,"
they will blossom forth into the medical world, swing their shingles to the breezes of the heavens,
become rich and famous, and prove veritable boons to suffering humanity in the practice of the
noble art. In the brightness of this idle fancy let us leave them.

Echoes From the Quiz Rooms.
Professor L. (glancing over his quiz list)—Mr. E-k-f-d, if you were called upon to treat a case
of pseudoosteo-malacia, what would—"Here, sir!" (from Mr. E-k-f-d, who is just awaking from a
semi-comatose condition.)
Professor Matas—Cau anyone tell me what is appendicitis?
LotJD Voice From the Perch—It is an inflammation of the Vermifuge Index.
Professor R.—Mr. H-n-y ! Is he here, present ? Mr. H-n-y, what is Fucus Vesiculosus?Mr. H-n-y (who has been assigned to Dr Dyer for several days)—It is a skin disease, characterized
by an eruption of vesicles.
From the Hospital Examiner— Describe the treatment of Epistaxis?
Answer—Appl^' active massage to the abdominal muscles for five hours. If this is not .suc-
cessful, perform Laparotomy.
St.-vte Board Examiner—What is Staphylorrophy ?
Answer—Infection of the body by Staphylococci.
State Board Examiner—What is origin, distribution, and function of the pneumogastric nerve?Answer—Originates from the liver, is distributed to muscles of the face, and its function is to
secrete sugar.
A First-Course Man's Query—In what kind of a wound do you use a Sagittal Suture?
Anatomy is from tvi'O Greek words, meaning "to cut," and "up through," and literally means" to cut up through." Hence medical students learn " to cut up through " the entire course.
AS ^WE OFTEN HEAR IT,
Professor C.—
'Tis not true! . . . I didn't teach you that. . . . If you will permit a
little egotism ...Professor S.—That is unique. You will find that nowhere else. . . . There is no guess-
ing in anatomy. You either know it or do n't know it. . . . The next gentleman is Mr.
Professor R.—According to the observations of Dujardin Beaumetz
Professor E.—We '11 take up this morning, gentlemen, the consideration of . . . Treat the
diathesis . . . Watch that heart
Professor M-t-s—We have a great deal to get over this morning, gentleman—Ah ! was that mybell?
Professor M-tz—Again ! . . . Let 's go a little further.
Professor L.—I will operate before you this morning a ca.se of Laparotomj^
147
ODE TO THE RESUME.
O, little book of wondrous knowledge
!
Full of anatomic lore,
'Points of special interest,"
And "peculiarities" galore,
Accept this token of the students.
Who so oft thy pages turn.
In a hopeless endeavor
Anatomy to learn.
Oft while poring o'er our books at night,
Burning the midnight oil,
Thy image comes to taunt us,
And makes our blood to boil.
We renew our toil with frenz}'.
And our hopes grow very slim,
At the vision of the Green Room,And the quiz at i p. M.
With the waning of the session.
When lectures tiresome grow.
And examination time draws near,
There is heard a muriliur low
From the vassals at thy altar kneeling.
Breathing forth an ardent prayer
For deliverance from thy servitude,
A.fter this, their second year.
If we "pass" we '11 then forgive thee,
O famous Resume
!
For the labor thou hast cost us;
And, on graduation day,
We '11 speak softl}' of thy virtues,
(Softly, so that none may hear)
And for the luckless Second Course
We '11 shed a silent tear.
We bespeak for thee a haven.
Where forever thou shalt rest.
With the peaceful consolation
That thou hast done thy best
To make life seem a failure
For every poor old " med "
Who has had to grind thy substance
Into his unlucky head.

THE OLIVE AND BLUE.
Words by Albert C. Phelps. Music bv Hans Richard.
I.
A song for the dear old College,
A song with a loyal ring;
Ye sons of Tulane, lift your voices,
Till the echoes in answer sing
!
Hide care in the laughter of music.
Ring out the song strong and true
;
For tonight we're a band of brothers,
As we sing of the Olive and Blue.
Here 's a toast to our Alma Mater,
Pledged now in the laughing wine
;
Fling open the floodgates of Music,
And pour out the blood of the vine
;
To Tulane all honor and glory,
May each year her praise renew,
And the hearts of her sons, still loyal,
Stand fast by the Olive and Blue.
III.
Come, brothers, lift up your voices,
While the reeling wine is red.
And call on the great god Bacchus,
His golden smiles to shed
;
The bright beads wink in the glasses,
That blush with the grape's rich hue;
Come, sing of our Alma Mater,
While you pledge me the Olive and Blue.

A Letter to the Editors of Jambalaya.
New Orleans, La., Fourth Wednesday in March, 1896.
To the Editors of Jambalaya:
Dear Sir—Two or three da}-.s ago, as I sat in nn- room gently puffing at the same old meerschaum
with which I have had the occasional pleasure of violating that august decree, " No smoking aloud
on the College premises," I was seized with a desire to relive my Senior year at old Tulane, and to
that end I unlocked my desk and drew forth the first volume of College Spirit. Running my eye up
and down the columns of an 1895 number, I came across what I consider—begging your pardon, sir
—
the most useful and significant item that has yet appeared in that sheet, the statement, namely, that
Tulane students could, for a consideration merely nominal, purchase of one Del Corral "sandwiches,
cakes, milk, and soda water." At this very moment the whistle of the postman was heard, and I
was soon in possession of the current number of College Spirit, Vol. II. (for which, I regret to sa3', I
have not yet been able to pay my subscription), bright and entertaining in almost everyway, but in
one respect sadly disappointing, for I immediately noticed that the item above mentioned was not in
print, but was supplaced by a breezy article on the possibilities of procuring in the "Tulane dining-
room" such dishes as "tea, coffee, milk, soup, meat, bread, butter, and pickles" from the "W. C.
T. U." (what fraternity is that, anyhow?), as well as " a variety of fruits, cakes and candies, at rea-
sonable prices."
Now, sir, "what does all this mean"? Has the leopard really changed his spots? Has this
institution of " pickles, meat, and soup" stamped out that pristine love of " sandwiches, cakes, milk,
and soda water"? or—woe worth the daj'—is this W. C. T. U. Fraternity a degenerate branch, a
weakl}^ cion of that noble tribe of Del Corrals? Tell me the truth, sir. I do not fear to know-it-;
but O, sir, accept a word of warning and advice from an old Tulanian, whose heart is filled with the
deepest emotions of love for, and interest in, his alma mater.
What is a student without a good digestion? And what could be at greater odds with good
digestion than the stuff set forth on the last programme? We have lingered too long amid the
lascivious delights .of "pickles and candies"; let us return to K\iQ. o\A regiim oi '-' cakes an'd-j-soda
155
water." I content myself with drawing one comparison, which I think will be conclusive. Among
the drinkables on these two menus I notice but one thing in common, and that is lemonade. But, sir,
I am told that the W. C. T. U. lemonade is to the other but as the faint glimmering of the lightning
bug's tail to the glorious effulgence of the noonday sun. I am told that the former is a weak, dyspeptic
mixture, a seedy concoction, the same from day to day, "fixed and constant as the north star." My
gorge rises at it when I compare it with the other. Indeed, how many pleasant recollections have I
of the lemonade of Del Corral 1 Its chief charm, as I remember it, was in its infinite variety. In
general, it was of a light, amber hue, served in glass mugs of ample hold, and of .such good measure
that a foam always rose on the top and had to be blown off before the nectar could be reached. But
a word to the bar-tender—the waiter, I mean—and the whole strength and virtue of this wonderful
lemonade could be condensed into a miniature bell shapel glass, sparkling with melted topaz, or, bet-
ter still, into two inches of reddish-brown fluid, with seltzer at the side, which was called bj' old
stagers "a straight lemonade," and deemed a drink fit for the gods. Ah! how pleasant the hours
spent over that chameleon liquid, as one sat by the door of the little shop, with the 'Varsit}^ a good
two blocks off, and the green meadow and park breezes in front. But lack-a-day ! those times are
past and gone, and the mere recollection of the place is blotted out by the suggestions of lard and
frying-pan that noonlj- arise from the abode of the W. C. T. U.'s.
Another thing to the honor of this little .shop was that so much of the trade was done in sweet
charity's name. The genial proprietor, realizing the pressure of students' needs, established a little
device whereby the impecunious grind could, for the very smallest consideration, obtain a goodly
repast for himself and his friends. This con.sisted of a machine in the shape of a box, with a slot in
the top and a quantity of coins at the bottom. And it was only necessary to drop through the slot
a coin upon this silver, and the intrant coin, striking upon the bottom, would open a little hinged
door, letting fall a great quantity of coin which was always, b}' common consent, deemed the property
of him who had introduced the coin at the top, thus accomplishing a deed of charity, and at the same
time obviating the embarrassment of being compelled to apply to the proprietor for a loan. But I
am told that under the new regime this little politeness has been abolished, and that everything is
done on a .strict cash basis.
I hope I have said enough to convince 3'ou of the imperative necessity of reform. Of course
this letter is not for publication, and you will show it to no one. Especially would I shun anyone's
156
knowledge of my indebtedness to the College Spirit, as above mentioned. But I hope and pra}- that
you will use your editorial power in bringing these matters back under the old regime, remembering
the words of the infallible Pope, how he said :
'
' Be not the first by whom the new are tried,
And be the last to lay the old aside."
I am, my dear sir, as ever, your most obedient .servant,
ViCARIUS.

MY PEARL IS A NEWCOMB GIRL. Am-- My Pearl is a Bowery Gin.Words by Edward Rightor, '95.
I.
I've met all the girls in the city,
Some wild, some gay, and some free
;
Though mine won't be out till next winter,
I tell you, she 's in it with me.
She's bone-ing her studies at Newcomb,And learning whatever she shall
;
She 's the best-looking girl in the College,
Is my little Newcomb gal.
CHORUS.My pearl is a Newcomb girl
;
She 's all the world to me;
She's in it with any that's out in the town.
And a jolly good-looker— see
!
At basketball—why, she does them all.
As she tackles and gives them a twirl
;
She sets the Soph's crazy, a senior, a daisy;
My pearl 's a Newcomb girl.
II.
In winter she goes to the opera.
And as she sits in the row.
The boys they all gather around her.
And watch her instead of the show.
They give her both presents and praises;
But with me that cuts no ice,
For she knows that I '11 give her my hand and heart
Whenever she names the price.
Chorus

III.
The ladies from Vassar like Java,
Some take the dark drink from Chinee
;
But the Newcomb fem.-sem. is not in it with them.For she both drinks and wears the green T.
Crimson for the high-toned Bostonians,
And russet the Texans unfurl
;
But the olive and blue for the girl that is true—And that girl's the Newcomb girl.

In the haunt of snake and fern.
When the moon is dim and ghostly,
And the red stars blaze and burn.

While their whispers, spirit-low,
Thrill my nerves, and set them tingling
With the thoughts of long ago.

Sighs, and vows, and lovers' parting

Sleeping in your slothful bed,

Flash and play into the sunlight.

Tradesman, turn ; forget tradition.
Join the hurried race for^old."* * -s- -s

' NEWCOMB.'
Should you ask me whence these screeches,
Whence this uproar and this tumult,
With the cry of girlish voices,
With the shout of glee and triumph,
With the sigh of disappointment.
With the noise as if of conflict,
I should answer, I should tell you
:
From the Gym. of far-famed Newcomb—That great college of the Southland—From the Gym. with bars and ladders.
With its dumb-bells and its chest-weights.
With its Skeleton in Armoire—Brother Bones, beloved of Normals
;
From the Seniors and the Juniors,
From the Blues and from the Bronzes—Classes famed afar for knowledge
And for games and sports athletic;
From the Blues, the '96-ers,
From the Bronzes, '97's;
From the pedalistic spheroid
Which the Tnlane boy calls football.
Out of Sophomores into Juniors
Now had grown our '97's,
vSkilled in all the craft of athletes,
Learned in all the lore of wise men.
In all youthful sports aud pastimes.
In all girlish arts aud labors.
Swift of foot was '97;
She could aim the ball with firmness.
And run forward with such fleetness
That the ball would fall behind her.
Strong of arm was '97;
She could shoot the ball straightforward.
Shoot it with such strength and swiftness
That a Senior, vainly striving,
Could not stop it in its passage.
Long and hard the '97's
Pleaded with their kind instructor
For a game and sport athletic.
165
Thus she taught the game of "Newcomb,"Thus displayed it and explained it,
Running through its various chances,
Various changes, various meanings.
Twenty curious eyes stared at her,
Full of eagerness stared at her.
"Many games," said a grave Senior,
"Many games of skill^and action
Have ive seen in different places,
Have we played on many a campus;
She who plays against us Seniors
Must have very nimble fingers."
Then up spoke our glorious captain—Captain Bob, of '97—" Though you think yourselves so skillful,
We can beat you, boastful Seniors;
We can even give you lessons
In this game of ball and bases."
From the room above the stairway
Came the Blues and came the Bronzes,
Dressed for action, armed for battle,
Dressed in flannel waists and " bloomers,"
Richly wrought with braid and ribbons
;
On their feet the shoes mismated,
'Round their waists a belfof leather;
In the Captain's hand the spheroid,
Made of hide both tough and pliant,
Strung with sinews of the reindeer,
Light with gas compressed within it.
Smooth, elusive, and_rebounding.
Warning said our kind preceptor,
" Go not forth, O '97,
To a contest with the Seniors,
Lest they harm you with their magic.
Lest they conquer you with cunning."
But the fearless '97's
Heeded not her woman's warning.
Forth the^'strode in the Gymnasium,At each stride a pace each measured.
Lurid was the stove before them.
Lurid was the radiator
;
Hot and close the air around them,
As from burning words and Seniors,
For their hearts were hot within them—Like a living coal their hearts were.
Hark ye now ! The game commences."Take ye sides, ye Blues and Bronzes."
And the grave and reverend Seniors,
166
With the "Newcomb walk" renowned,
Take their places for the contest,
With the high stall-bars behind them;
While a row of eager faces
Bend upon them hostile glances
From that part of the Gymnasium,
Where the jolly Juniors hastened.
Where the stove pours forth its radiance,
Where the stovepipe, bent and battered,
Shows the strength of girlish muscles.
One! two! three! the ball goes upward,
Then the two contending captains,
Rushing forward, try to seize it.
Foremost darted our tall captain,
I^aid her hand upon the spheroid—On the rounded missile laid it—Hurled it madly at a Senior.
But the leader of the Seniors
Caught, and tossed it backward from her,
With a motion of her forearm.
Tossed it back at her assailant.
Then Lieutenant J. O. G., the half back.
Throws the ball, with force gigantic,
And it whizzes through the ether,
Straight to kiss an ardent Senior,
Bending forward to receive it.
Full it strikes her on the forehead.
And rebounding from that surface.
Falls behind the vaulting-horses.
Seized the spheroid, the wise Senior,
Dragged it by its thongs and bindings
From the recess in the corner
Thick with dust, the round projectile.
Long and loud laughed '97.
Then began the deadly conflict,
Hand to hand among the maidens.
From the bases screamed the judges.
'99, the Class of Freshmen,
Sat upon the railings near them.
Cheering, clapped their hands above them.
Like a tall tree in the tempest
Bent and lashed, our giant captain.
Till her brown locks all disordered.
Streamed adown her back in ringlets.
And the hairpins fell like raindrops.
Then did Richardson, our center.
By an inch escape a fumble
;
And the ends, both Weaks and Richmond,
167
m-
Ran to catch, if she should miss it.
Then doth Fowler lose her shoestring.
"Wait a moment," calls the maiden;" No we wont," says irate Rogers
;
"Stop your fussing," shouts the umpire.
Once again the game continued;
Rodd and Schwartz bumped heads together
;
Shrieking fell the fated Woodward,
With her little finger wounded.
Venables flew to the rescue.
Caught the ball before it landed.
Saved a point for '97,
Hurled it back upon the Seniors.
Crashing fell the oval football.
Till the Gym. shook with the tumult
And confusion of the battle
;
And the air was full of shoutings,
As of thunder in the mountains." Hold !
" at length cried our instructor,
"Time is up, Oh, wearied maidens;
Cool ye now your heated foreheads,
Doff the garments of the warpath,
Put ye on the'garb of students.
Waste no tinie in idle talking,
Get you to your different classes."
"What's the score?" themaidens questioned,
" Victory !" the'air resounded
;
" Victory for '97 !
"
'97, best of classes.
Great and glorious '97.
Thus is played the game of " Newcomlj,"
By the Juniors and the Seniors,
In the Gym. of noble Newcomb.Though the room is left deserted,
You may see the marks of contest;
See the buttons and the hairpins,
On the floor where they are scattered;
See the hollows, dents, and scratches
From the feet of many maidens.
Homeward gone the weary maidens
;
Gone are Juniors, gone are Seniors
;
Parted are the Blue and'Bronzes.
All the Gym. is left in silence,
But the mem'ry of the'contest
Still doth haunt the steps and bases.
Still the lofty walls reecho" Long live Blues and long live Bronzes,
Long the glorious game of " Newcomb."

CANTO I.
"What dire offense from 'voting causes' springs,"
"What mighty contests rise from trivial things."
"These lines to 'Blond' and 'Red' are due,"
And e'en the Facult}- may deign to view
Them—and, if perchance, some slight excuse
I find for those I sing of, then not of use
I '11 deem my labor's been, and not in vain
Have I expended energy. I 'd fain
Relate why knights so bold did use their strength
To prove that each was right. At shortest length,
I'll strive to say what to these knights befell.
And may a lenient public echo back, '"T is well."
CANTO II.
Harsh words had passed that could not be excused,
And wrath the heroes might}* breasts infused;
With vengeful rage the Furies fired each mind
;
Nor terms of peace could friends convening find
—
170
Stern, with knit brows, the maddened heroes stood.
With flashing eyes and hearts athirst for blood.
So, 't was decided, without more ado,
To meet in combat—with a chosen few
—
To quench in gore the burning flames of hate,
And leave the issue to their strength and Fate.
CANTO III.
They met. Ye gods be witness to the strife,
Ne'er did Hercules of old contend for life.
With greater power than did these two
With fearful blows attempt to do
—
Each other. Fast rained the thudding blows
;
From "Reddy's " nasal peak the dark blood flows;
But heeding not the life tide's flow,
He strike's out, hits ''Blondene " below
The belt. The time is up; first round is o'er,
And neither knight has felt the floor.
CANTO IV.
Once more each warrior, true and brave,
Strives with all strength to fill a grave.
Fierce wages the well-matched, terrible fight;
There 's no advantage—'till with his right,
" Red" lands a blow on "Blondy's" chin.
Ye gods! "Blond's" teeth rattled like the bending of tin-
But, quick to regain, he lands his left fist
On "Reddy's" poor nose. Ah, then, I wist;
The blood spurted forth like a miniature fount
—
Like a torrent that has its source in a mount,
And comes rushing on to the valley below.
Boiling over its banks in its impetuous flow.
CANTO V.
So they fought on— neither gaining the fight.
They fought with great prowess—'till fleet-footed Night
Put an end to<the battle—ended the strife—And both the brave warriors still retained life.
But for many a long and tedious moon,
"Red" had a large nose, and not very soon
Did "Blondy's" chin get relieved of the scar,
That all his "profilial " beauty did mar.

THE NEWCOMB BLUES.
By C. M. B.
Of old, a grim frown sat on each cloudy brow,
When woman developed her biceps ; but now
We view with approval the pliant young maids,
Who gather together with captain and aids,
To throw the ball lightly, to catch it before
The opposite side makes a point on the floor.
I am speaking of Xewcomb—the game, not the college;
'Tis not football's sister, although I acknowledge.
No youth with long hair ever strove with such zeal.
Or stood the hard balls without even a squeal,
Like the tender young girlies, whose aim is to win.
And now they cry loudly, "It's out!" "No, it's in!"
"It's in!" "That's not right; it's a foul, I declare!"
"Point for Blue," cries the referee, and surely she 's fair.
For Blue;why of course, that's alwaj's the way,
For the Ninety-six Team has ever the day.
They're first in the Gym., they're first in the College,
They 're brilliant 3-oung women, as all must acknowledge.
There 's the quick, sturdy captain, the best catch
On the floor, and "the near-sighted fossil," whose match
Could scarcely be found in the ages of yore,
'Mid trilobites, turtles, and fishes galore.
Then the fame of another is yet quite as great
—
'Tis she who is able to catch on her pate
The hardest, the quickest, the meanest of balls.
There is one whose alertness is praised in our halls
;
She 's a treasure, for if the ball she can 't grasp.
With a quick little movement and a shy little laugh.
She sends it right out with wild cheers from us all,
And the referee's voice declares "An out ball!"
Another's most nimble—she stands in the rear.
And plays like a Spartan when danger is near;
It is needless to saj- she 's our well-trained Greek.
All these are prizes, but pray who would seek
To find far or near 'neath the great glowing sun
"A Wonder ' so fine as our own living one?
We've also " a midget," although somewhat small.
She is just right for catching a very low ball.
There 's a place in the Gym. that few like to guard,
The steps in the corner, but it's never too hard
For Pitchy, the reach of whose wide-spreading arm.
Like steel to a magnet, the ball seems to charm.
Two more are still left—one wise in applause.
The other scarce bright, although I shall pause.
And with Charity's veil her defects I shall hide.
For there are no poor plaj-ers on Ninety-six side.
Farewell, ye Bronze maidens! Farewell to ye Blue!
Nay, blue was always the color most true.
We see it above in the dome of the sky
;
It tinges the sea as if there was nigh
Our team of good players, in navy blue clad.
Sporting with Neptune, whose visage so glad,
Was dimpled with smiles and rippled with laughter,
Till on each tinted wave another came after,
And wrote in the sand, with a full curving line,
The fame of the Blues in tracery fine.

A STROLL.
CAN'T OH, I.
A would-be spring-time poet,
Whom the June-time tailor knew,
Took a stroll one lovely evening
On the St. Charles Avenue.
CAN'T OH, n.
And thus in the thoughtful silence
Did ovir poet friend regard
The tricks of nature's workings,
Till he reached the Boulevard.
CAN'T OH, III.
This street, wide and extensive,
Has been kept so nice and clean
That the Latin Masters
Have called it La Rue de Melpomene,
CAN'T OH, IV.
Let's go back to our.poet,
See the rapture in his eyes;
Some heavenly vision, surely.
In his inmost soullmust rise,
CAN'T OH, v.
Materially, 'tis'a maiden
With her face concealed from view,
But down her perfect shoulders.
Locks of golden hue.
CAN'T OH, VI.
Such locks had queenly Helen,
Cleopatra had the same.
Proud should be this N. O. maid—This maiden of unknown name.
CAN'T OH, VIL
We left our poet standing
As though transformed to stone
;
And yet this stranger maiden
Noticed not the stranger lone.
CAN'T OH, VIII.
Next morning the newspaper
'Nounced a funeral to take place—Sad tidings of our poet—He had seen the maiden's face.

FOUND ON THE COLLEGE CAiVlPUS.
The following note was found on the College Campus last Saturday
:
" My Dearest So?i : I write to send you a pair of mj^ last summer trousers. See if you can get
Mr. Stevens to make you a new cravat out of them. Also some socks, which your mother knit by
cutting down some old coats of mine. Your mother sends j-ou, without my knowledge, a new
necktie, but for fear you may become extravagant in your dress I have replaced it by one of my old
ca.st-ofF ones. Your mother and I are well, except John, who has the measles, which we fear would
have spread among your three sisters, had they not died during their infancy. My son, be a credit to
your mother and an honor to my teachings. Your mother and myself are your affectionate parents."

THE LAST SPREE.
Borrowed from the Spanish of Alarcon.
"I would give you mj- oath," said the Marquis, lighting another cigar, "that if the lives of
men, once wild and now pardoned, were examined, it could be proved that their last battle, that is to
say, their last spree, was a joke, a defeat—a Waterloo."
" Wh}', Marquis, what an odd chap you are ! Why, to listen to this speech of j^ours one would
imagine that you spoke from experience."
"Well," continued the Marquis, "I mean to saj- that no one would give up the excitement of
conquest the day after a triumph. 'All lovelaces have of necessity embraced virtue after a rout.'"
"Marquis," exclaimed General X., who all this time had been silent, "you lay so much stress
on the subject that you lead me to believe that you were—er—pretty gay in the daj's gone by."
" Not more so than the majorit)-."
"Did you suddenly convert yourself to repentance while you could still aspire to new glories?"
" Well, I guess ! I was not more than thirty when I retired from the world and married Elise.
I did not wait, like Charles V., who was full of rheumatism when he abandoned the battlefield."
"Ah ! tell us all about it. Do relate to us the routing which preceded your retirement."
"With the greatest pleasure, gentlemen. Where is the old man who does not rejoice in calling
back to memory his amorous campaigns, however unfortunate some were ? I remember perfectly well
the circumstances which determined my abdication. This was really an overthrow—horrible—no,
no, I should sa.y providential, for I warn you that I was not defeated by a man more agreeable than
myself to the beautiful one, nor was my defeat caused by her disdain, and still less was I defeated by
myself.'
'
" Bravo, Marquis, that last phrase was worthy of the court of Louis XV."
"No, no," exclaimed the Marquis, flipping his cigar with his little finger, "it was Providence
that defeated me."
" Now, now, enough prologue ! You have roused our interest to the highest pitch."
"Thank you, Duke, I will begin. I mu.st tell you that my defeat or repentance does not date
from the time of my marriage to Elise."
'
' Oh , we understand ; of course it was before that. '
'
k
179
" Not at all. It was after that. When I was married I was not genuinely cured, that is, I was
not yet on cold terms with Dame Spree ; and I led my beautiful Elise to the altar more for fear of
never meeting another woman of her qualities, but at the same time I had not said ' Latet angids in
herba.' I was not fully repentant; I had not made out the articles of my reform, and I had not met
with the routing in question."
The Marquis sucked reflectively at his cigar to revive the light, sighed, and continued:
"I had been three years married to this adorable Marchioness, whom you all know, and to whose
talents and accomplishments I do justice, . . . .
"
" Oh, the Marchioness is an angel !
"
"and who was then young and beautiful."
"Beautiful! why sh^ is that still to me," exclaimed the Duke. "Elise is the woman I most
admire in Madrid."
"And j'oung ! why, she is that, too," added a stylish j-oungster.
"She still believes it," continued the Marquis, proudl)', and with an air of satisfaction, "but,
between us, I must confess that she is forty-five. I carried ten years more than she, and I have just
accomplished my fifty-fourth year. O Lord ! if she heard me ! Well, let us get back to our .story.
" I was then, as I am now, truly in love with my wife, appreciating all her qualities, and happy
to think of mj- luck in having chained to ni)- life this exceptional woman. I proclaimed openly that
matrimony had a great man}- advantages. . . .
"
"But your escapades?"
"Exactly! I had been wild, and I still kept in my heart a devilish desire for ' le bieii d'auirui,''
a desire which is characteristic of all conquerers, those of nations and those of the fair sex."
"Superb, edifying; continue, Marquis, 5'ou speak like a book."
" It meant that I had not entered the temple of virtue through the doors of disenchantment, of
humility, of repentance," continued the Marquis, contemplating with an air of melanchoh' the ashes
of his cigar. " It was that my marriage was a triumph, a fortune, a victory."
"Sublime, Marquis, sublime!"
" It seems that I make myself clear," continued the narrator, as he cast off the ashes of his cigar
with a flip of his finger. " Well, sir, on a certain fine day, I began to feel a ticklish sensation of the
old wildness. Phantoms of the numerous others, of the forbidden woman, began to signal to me, to
shape themselves on the serene horizon of my domestic peace. I felt like waking up, I brooded
within myself that it was time for me to revive, to recuperate, to prove to myself that I was still a
man like the others, capable of inspiring an active service, to prove also to the devil that if I had
been a model of a husband, it was to please myself and not through obligation. I did not die when

I was married, I was free of action and could climb over the walls of my prison whenever I chose,
and my remaining within was not that of a convict of virtue, but as a suitor of my wife.
'
' Now, a short time after these atrocious visions—daughters of my impunit)'—appeared to me and
persuaded me, fate—the deity in which gamblers and those who are afraid to use God as their accom-
plice, believe—procured me an occasion to perpetrate the act of independence which tempted me.
" Pay closer attention now, for my heroine is about to appear.
"Elise and I were in the country, in the suburbs of Baj'ona, in one of the numerous chalets which
are rented out during the summer. Ours was situated on the high road leading to Paris. There
were no railways in Southern France in those days.
"It was in this very countrj^ place that I conceived the rascally thought of breaking my conjugal
oath to mj' better half, and won the following conquest which I thought would add new laurels to
those of my stirring youth. The solitude, the splendors of nature, rapid visions of bewitching sum-
mer sojourners and bathers, who passed in front of our solitary abode, directing themselves to other
points of the P3Tenees, contributed, without a doubt, to shake me from ni}- pet habits. A countr}'
—
especialh^ a part of France—so peopled with divinities in stockings and corsets, is the worst enemy
of matrimony. Silks in the silence of the woods may rustle in such a waj- as to cause vertigo.
" While in this place I found that an ancient flame of mine was al.so there. She was a little fast.
I might have married her, have asked for her hand if she had not allowed me to kiss it several times
when I escorted her back from parties under the chaperonage of her old aunt."
"Take a breath, my dear Marquis, or we shall guess the name of this interesting one. Suppose
you give her a name so as to make things clear, call her Antonia, Josephine, Dolores, or whatever
you like."
"Let's take Antonia. It's a pretty name, and Roman and classical, too; ver\' well suited for
half-dressed subjects. Well, Antonia, then, came within an inch of making m}- past, present, and
future, had the aunt given us more space. It is well to bear in mind, however, that j-our true
libertine never marries one of his victims; the rake alwaj^s marries a saint, like m}- Marchioness, or
goes unaccompanied to the lower regions.
" As I was saj-ing, then, I learned that this former flame was married at the time to a poor friend
of mine who was not the kind of fellow to kiss Antonia's hand without first asking for it, nor was he
more credulous than I.
" She lived in the other solitarj- chalet oi that vicinity and a very short distance from ours. I
called on her and her husband, and we rejoiced at the proximity of our dwellings, yiy wife and she
became acquainted, and after the interchange of a few breakfasts and such civilities, we four became
the best of friends.*
i8i
" Mj' poor Marchioness suspected nothing. Things went ver}- smoothly. The distance which
separated us was accomplished in half an hour on horseback. After my first meeting with Antonia, I
saw that she had not forgotten the kisses I had left on her hand, and on a proper occasion I availed
myself of the inattention of my wife and her husband, to augment the catalogue of all the kisses with
half a dozen in the palm of the left hand, another half-dozen in the right, and a fatherly, sonorous
one in the middle of her little mouth— all of this while we took a little exercise in our garden or
hers, and while her husband and my wife— with what remorse do I say it !— were talking about
flowers or how lucky we had been to meet each other. This was in the middle of September.
"One Sunday her husband went to , where he remained three days. On Monday she
gave me full explanations how to call on her so as not to be seen by any one, and how to find her in
the garden in her large pavilion. In that way we could be alone. I could not help admiring these
wise plans. I thought that they were so well calculated as to show experience. I was, therefore, the
morning— before morning there must have been a dawn. At any rate Antonia was worthy of my
illusions. At twenty-four she was superbly beautiful. She had a regal form, active movements, the
lips of a child and the eyes of a woman, and of a very womanly kind, too.
"On Monday, then, late in the evening, I received a letter (which I had written to myself) on
very important business. This served the purpose of fooling my wife. I feigned the greatest
agitation, and at the climax of my acting, left my poor wife very much alarmed at what she considered
very serious. I was fully aware of the enormity of my sins. In one moment I rebuked myself as a
falsifier, an imposter, a hangman, a traitor, a thief. Total— five infamies !"
The audience preserved a .serious silence as the Marquis paused for a moment, and then went on in
a lighter tone
:
" It was one of those foggy nights, which are so abundant in the Pyrenees eight months out of
the year. One could see absolutely nothing, but the road was straight, wide and free of trees, and
my horse, intelligent to the extreme, was sure to guide me, having often gone to Antonia's. I
considered it an advantage, on the whole, to have such a dark night, since in that way no one would
see me. 'There is a God who protects lovers,' I thought joyfully. How my heart dilated at the
thought of my former love for Antonia, of the kisses I had stamped on her hands, not mortgaged
then, also the other kisses, lighter, perhaps, those on the cheeks, now cold property (audacious
kis.ses of course), and those still more so on the tempting lips. Her languid looks at our last meeting
burned me. I lived in a moment of hope. What recompense was I to receive, and at what little
cost ! I rejoiced at the thought of not having married her. To possess for a wife an angel, and for a
sweetheart one not an angel— I considered mj'self a fortunate lover.
"I was thus deeply engrossed in vay reflections when my horse stumbled and fell."
182
" The fall of Paul of which we were speaking just now, was it not?"
"Exactly, the fall of St. Paul," said the old sinner, puffing a mouthful of smoke and following
it with his eyes, as the blue spirals went to darken the ceiling of the grand salon of the Casino of the
Prince.
"And so," observed one of the listeners, "you broke—
"
"I did not break anything, my General."
"Then-—"" L,et me conclude. I picked myself up, hunted awkwardly for my hat, which could hardly be
found in the darkness, brushed myself with both mj- hands as best I could, and mounted the saddle.
I was filled with greater impatience to reach my destination , to come to the side of my sweet sinner.
It was for her that I had lied to mj- beloved wife, and it was for her that I had left that wife, alone in
a strange countrj- on such a night. All this I reasoned now, but then I dreamed of Antonia, of her
ravishing mouth, of her silken curls, of her own self which had grown so attractive. I spurred myhorse on, and in a quarter of an hour felt that I was nearing the paradise of mj^ dreams. My horse
seemed to recognize the spot, and stopped at the hospitable gate where on several occasions he had
been well treated. 'Thank j'ou, good horse,' said I, patting him on the neck, 'you, too, love this
mansion of exciting adventures.' The horse replied by neighing, which sounded to me as a sign of
relief, as if he said 'last.' Through the fog I saw a light which I thought to be the pavilion. I
leaped from mj^ horse and walked toward it ; mj' heart leaped with joy, naturally, and I felt a moment
of fear. I tied m}- horse to the gate where I was to enter, and pushing it, found it open. ' Bless her
soul,' I thought, 'she was considerate enough to leave it open for me; how charming of her to make
things so easy.' Just at this moment a white phamtom appeared in the fog, a low voice, hoarse with
emotion, 3^et full of infinite sweetness, murmured through the fog, 'Juan, is it you?' 'It is, my life,'
I cried, opening my arms. I received several caresses, and an adorable face, bathed in tears, leaned
against mine, and the same voice, sweeter and sweeter, but less veiled for emotion, said to mebetween two loving kisses, ' Oh, Juan, I thought you would never return.'—It was my wife !
"Yes, I was in my own house, in my garden, in my chalet, one like Antonia's, like every chalet
in the world; for when I fell from my horse—
"
" I understand," said the Duke, " the horse returned, as it is apt to do, contrary to where you
were going.'
'
"Exactl}', and in the disturbance of the fall and the distraction of my thoughts in search of myhat, I was completely puzzled."
" In other words, the horse preferred to return home than to run in search of adventures."
" I never dreamed that he had turned back."
183
" Well, what happened afterwards?"
"Nothing. I was at home, I had in mj' arms Elise, 30ur friend, the Marchioness."
"Lord! what did you do ? What did you say ?"
'
' I took my wife into the pavilion and formed an oath never to see Antonia again ; or to think of
any other woman than my wife, who had awaited mj- coming with such anxiety and who had greeted
me so warmly."
"Poor Antonia," said the Duke. And the audience burst out into a peal of laughter.
"To conclude," the Marquis went on, "do me the favor to consider the respect I owe to my
horse, who put me on the right road to virtue. If I were an Emperor, like Caligula, I would have
made him a Consul ; but as I am no more than a Marquis, I sold him, since I was ashamed to think
that a soulless brute, in my own home, was more worthy of my wife's respect than her own
husband."L,'Ombra.

From a stage coach, and thereby was killed;
His name, J. Sykes, a maker of sassengers.
Slain with three other outside passengers.
Beneath this stone, a lump of clay.

Of Joseph Jones,
Who ate while he was able;
But once o'er-fed
He dropped down dead,
And fell beneath the table.

Here lies A. Peck, which some men sayWas first of all a Peck of clay.
This, wrought with skill divine, while fresh,
Became a curious Peck of flesh.
Through various forms its maker ran.
Then, adding breath, made Peck a man.Full fifty years Peck felt life's bubbles.
Till death relieved A. Peck of troubles.
Then fell poor Peck, as all things must,And here he lies— a Peck of dust.
He 's done a-catching cod,
And gone to meet his God.
Here lies my wife, Sallie Sexton;
She was a wife who never vexed one.
I can 't say that for her at the next stone.
Here lies the body of Sir John TroUup,Whose death caused these stones to roll upAnd now his body fills this hole up.

AN OBEDIENT WIFE.
A very angry railroad coiidtictor called at a certain newspaper office the other day and related
the following incident
:
"There was a young lady," said he, " the other daj^ on my train, who made me very tired. Every
time I passed through the car she asked me if we had reached Biloxi. After having endured this for
about two hours I stopped passing her way. Well, we reached Biloxi and passed it. When we were
fifteen miles or more from the other side of that town. I happened to pass through again, when out she
cried :' Have we reached Biloxi yet ?
' I looked at my watch and found that we were three hours
behind time, but there was no help for it ; we had to go back to that accursed Biloxi. When wereached it and had stopped at the station, I went in and told her that we had arrived. She smiled
sweetly and said :' I thank you very much for the information ; my husband told me to take a pill
when I arrived at Biloxi.'" H. B.
Now-a-days when a man is elected to Congress, he wins his seat by pay-trick-ism.
A preacher took a pinch of cheese
And placed it in a trap
;
He put it in with greatest ease.
The trap closed with a snap
;
His digits flew up to his head,
He gave a mournful yell—The words this Christian brother said
Would spoil this page to tell.
